UPDATE: Ruegsegger to shed orange

Just spoke to DU coach George Gwozdecky. Sophomore center Tyler Ruegsegger will don a crimson or gold jersey today, meaning he won’t be “injured” orange.

“We’ll see if he can take contact today,” Gwozdecky said.

The coach declined to say Ruegsegger will definitely play Friday, but by the sounds of it, it looks good. After all, some guys in previous years — Ryan Caldwell and Jussi Halme, to name a few — wore orange the whole second half of the season. In fact, Halme was nicknamed “Permi-Orange.”
